Broncos President/CEO Joe Ellis discusses Pat Bowlen's legacy: 'He did everything the right way'

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- With Owner Pat Bowlen set to be inducted into the Ring of Fame this weekend, Broncos President/CEO Joe Ellis sat down to discuss Bowlen's lasting legacy, his continued influence on the organization and the hopes for the future ownership of the franchise.

What do you think it meant to Mr. Bowlen to see the franchise get back on the right track before he stepped away because of Alzheimer's disease?

"Well, I think he was proud of that. But that was also -- and always will be -- his expectation: that we're going to put the right people in place and we're going to turn it around, and if we make a mistake, then we're going to fix it again.
